Teeling Whiskey, Ireland’s leading progressive Irish whiskey, is extremely proud to announce that its Dublin distilled Single Pot Still has claimed the prestigious title of the “World’s Best Single Pot Still” at the 2022 World Whiskies Awards (WWA). This success follows on from Teeling Whiskey achieving the pinnacle of “World’s Best Single Malt” at these awards in 2019.
By winning, this second “World’s Best” title, Teeling Whiskey has again made history as the first whiskey to be honoured across two different categories. Teeling Whiskey received the award at the exclusive 2022 World Whiskies Awards ceremony held in the Honourable Artillery Company in London on Thursday 24th March 2022.
To ensure the celebrations went long into the night, Rob Caldwell, Teeling Whiskey’s Global Brand Ambassador, was chosen as the “World’s Best Irish Brand Ambassador” for all his efforts in educating and representing Teeling and Irish Whiskey around the world over the last four years.
The World Whiskies Awards is a premier celebration of the very best in all internationally recognised styles of whiskey. Presented by TheDrinksReport.com and Whisky Magazine, the World Whiskies Awards is one of the highlights of the year for the global whiskey industry selecting, rewarding and promoting the world’s best whiskeys to consumers and trade across the globe. An esteemed panel of internationally recognised whiskey experts chose Teeling Whiskey’s ‘Wonders of Wood’ Single Pot Still as the world’s best.
“Since reviving our old family trademark of Teeling Whiskey back in 2012, we have endeavoured to make sure every bottle of Irish whiskey is of the highest quality. To be honoured once as the World Best Single Malt back in 2019 felt like a pinnacle of all our efforts. However, being honoured as the World’s Best for the second time, this time for our Dublin distilled Single Pot Still against well-established competitors who have dominated the Single Pot Still category, has proven our new distillery is world class. We are now right back at the top table of global whiskey and we look forward to continuing to lead this new golden era for Irish whiskey.”
Jack Teeling – Founder and Managing Director of Teeling Whiskey Company
